There's something appealing about the idea that one's soul, or life force, takes some other form after death. Or that your life force is reincarnated, but with no memory of its prior life. I don't know how that would happen or if it's true, but the other thing I think is that the experience after your life ends, is the same as before you were born.

I don't really fear death. I'd rather my death not be painful, but I'll take what comes. It's part of the experience of living.

If, as the scientists say, space and time are one, we will certainly never be gone from spacetime. (' 'The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ,Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line ...')

As for what exists once the body is gone ... one planet at a time!
